    Wonderful lakefront property! Would absolutely stay here again, as the place was fabulous. The location is just a couple minutes from town along a quiet street with lakefront homes and cabins. Room 8 is an attic apartment with a full kitchen, large bathroom and breathtaking views.

    Really loved our stay at Croftville. So close and convenient for downtown Grand Marais, but also so lovely to be right on the lake with the fresh breezes and hearing the waves lapping on the shore at night. Our unit (#8) was so comfortable and had million-dollar views of the lake. The unit was equipped with everything we needed and slept 4 comfortably with the sofa bed in the living area. The kitchen had everything we needed and the bathroom was very spacious and comfortable. Communication at every step was very easy and efficient. Will definitely be our first choice for future stays in Grand Marais!

    Great location. Terrific views and lovely to have a fireplace and big bathtub for relaxing after a day of snowshoeing. Also loved having a full kitchen so we could get our meals with no fuss.

    Croftville Cottages #8 absolutely exceeded our expectations. The unit was comfortable, clean, modern, and well-stocked with everything we needed. Being located right on the shore of Superior provided some amazing views, and we thoroughly enjoyed the cozy vibe and wood-burning fireplace in the evenings. The barely 6-minute drive to Grand Marais made it easy to head into town and access nearby trails. I would absolutely go back, and I highly recommend for anyone looking to get away to the North Shore.

    Lovely comfortable spot with views of the lake from all the windows. The property was wonderful with lots of outdoor spots to sit and spots for bonfires. Really enjoyed our stay

    This place is just as advertised. Clean, spacious, and well-decorated. The views of the lake are spectacular. A lot of attention to detail, and well equipped with kitchen items, books, games, etc.
